Good evening, I wanted some clarification. Some time ago, I came across an auction for a little model from the States; to correct myself (auction or opportunity to bid), anyway I agreed with the seller on a certain amount that was fine for me, and I won the item!But once I went to the cart, the amount to pay was no longer the one I had bid, but the starting auction price, which was about 150 dollars more, by the way!I contacted the seller and explained the situation, and he replied that it might be that the system sometimes makes a mistake, but if there were an error in the payment, he would then issue a refund!I very naively completed the purchase, but I noticed that in the cart there was no VAT increase on the total price (item/shipping and duties in a minimal amount) and the amount was still the starting auction price!Looking again at the summary of the purchased item, even after 7 days there was no line for VAT.To conclude, yesterday after about fifteen days I received the item, but checking the total payments again now I see the amount I had bid, correctly, and 180 dollars of VAT!So I wanted to know if anyone can advise me.Did the seller perhaps change the entries after the purchase and mislead me, or was it a normal procedure!THANK YOU !
